Why simply quitting alcohol doesn't quite cut it—instead, we discuss the transformative power of connecting with your inner self and the universe's natural rhythms.

I recall my client Elizabeth's interview on the podcast, showcasing the profound impact of distinguishing our physical sensations from the mental stories we tell ourselves, a pivotal step on the path to sustainable sobriety.

We weave our inner journey with the threads of the winter solstice and the lunar cycle's ebb and flow. Discover how these cosmic events reflect our personal growth, offering moments for introspection and release, much like the phases of the moon guide us through life's mysteries.

Learn to harness the Wheel of the Year and find support in the goddess Brigid's Imbolc festival, as we share our experiences of nurturing visions and utilizing resources to realize our aspirations amidst the astrological dance of Aries' desire and Aquarius' call for collective progress.

Together with Nura Rachelle, we celebrate circle gatherings as sanctuaries of shared wisdom, where the fiery individuality of Aries meets Aquarius' collective spirit, creating a dynamic synergy that fuels our transformative quests. This episode promises to arm you with the insights needed to forge a path where alcohol is no longer the centerpiece, but a forgotten part of the past.

As the wheel turns again, we make our gradual yet inevitable transition into spring.
Nature gracefully reminds us of the cyclical initiations through her seasons.

Permission To Be Successful In Sobriety

21m · Published 17 Jan 08:00

We often wait for someone else to give us the green light to feel a certain way, to change, to be happy, to love something. In this process you may find your self defensive nd over expaplining, creating even more resitance to change.

How can you be successful in sobriety without anyone else "getting It".
Find out on today's show.

Here are five key takeaways:

  1. Sustainable Sobriety as a Birthright: Sobriety is not a trait acquired in reaction to alcohol but a natural state of being. The perspective that sobriety is innate within, like a birthright, becomes a game-changer.
  2. Why we defer our permission: Seeking the approval of others by needing them to fully understand, is an effort to try to understand ourselves more deeply.
  3. Permission to Feel: The theme of giving oneself permission to feel, wediscusses the impact of external validation and the need to understand and honor one's emotions without over-explaining or defending.
  4. Curating a Container for Self-Exploration: The importance of creating a container, a space for self-exploration, is highlighted. The Naturally Sober Woman Program and Ignite your Vision Retreat are presented as opportunities for an immersive experience.
  5. Moving from Defensiveness to Self-Authority: Recognizing and moving away from the need to defend oneself or seek external validation is crucial. The journey involves self-awareness, curiosity, and compassion, leading to self-authority and clarity.
